Cardata, the largest data and second-hand pricing company in the automotive industry, shared the current list of car models that are most in demand by second-hand consumers. Accordingly, Renault Megane led the list of the most preferred models in the second hand. The second most preferred vehicle by consumers was Fiat Egea, while the third vehicle model was Fiat Linea. These models were followed by Renault Symbol, Volkswagen Polo, Ford Fiesta and Renault Clio, respectively. In the Cardata research, it was among the prominent details that consumers continue to prefer models with diesel automatic versions, especially for second-hand vehicles.

Cardata General Manager Hüsamettin Yalçın stated that the measures taken will delay the demand for second-hand vehicles a little more, but there will be a high interest in second-hand vehicles. Pointing out that there are two important factors that will increase second hand prices in the current situation, Hüsamettin Yalçın stated that the growth of the chip crisis may cause a price increase in the second hand as in 2020. Pointing out that with the lifting of restrictions, the interest in new and second-hand vehicles will increase, Hüsamettin Yalçın said, “With the warming of the weather, we are heading towards a period where people will move outside more, get on their vehicles or buy new vehicles and travel. This reaction will of course be delayed for a while as a result of the new pandemic measures. This mobility will begin with the return of the number of cases to normal. As a result, we expect the tendency to buy more new and used vehicles and the prices of used vehicles to increase, ”he said.

Cardata, the largest data and second-hand pricing company in the automotive industry, shared the current list of car models that are most in demand by second-hand consumers. Renault Megane led the list that Cardata created among thousands of vehicles according to 2021 statistics. During this period, Fiat Egea was the second most preferred vehicle by consumers, while the third vehicle model was Fiat Linea. These models were followed by Renault Symbol, Volkswagen Polo, Ford Fiesta and Renault Clio, respectively. In the Cardata research, it was among the prominent details that consumers continue to prefer models with diesel automatic versions, especially for second-hand vehicles.

"The growth of the chip crisis may increase second-hand vehicle prices like last year"

Reminding that the demand for second-hand vehicles started to decline as of November 2020, Cardata General Manager Hüsamettin Yalçın said, “As a result of the decrease in demand, second-hand vehicle prices decreased by 20 percent on average. With the announced new restriction measures, we can predict that the market will continue in this way for a while in the second hand. On the other hand, there are two important issues that will affect second hand vehicle prices up in the upcoming period. The first of these is the chip crisis. We anticipate that the chip-sourced supply problem will not grow as much as the crisis in zero-vehicle supply due to the pandemic last year. However, if the crisis spreads and there are global disruptions in the supply chain and the vehicle cannot be produced, demand will again shift to second-hand vehicles, as it did last year. This may cause second-hand vehicles to rise, just like last year, ”he said.

"Restrictions postponed the demand, the second-hand market may revive after the holiday"

Cardata General Manager Hüsamettin Yalçın stated that the new restrictions announced for the moment indicate the post-Ramadan Feast and said, “With the warming of the weather, we are heading towards a period where people will move outside with more mobility, get on their vehicles or buy new vehicles and travel. This reaction will of course be delayed for a while as a result of the new pandemic measures. This mobility will begin with the return of the number of cases to normal. We think that people will travel more, especially since there are two separate holidays until the end of July and these days are also in the summer months. As a result, there will be a tendency to buy more new and used vehicles. In line with all these developments, we expect the demand for second hand to increase and second hand vehicle prices to rise ”.
